A few days before I participated in a jam to showcase my skills and see what other people are building, it was hosted on itch.io a famous place for hosting games and game jams.
My Experience:
The game jam hosts had given a time period of 10 days to finish a game by either using an engine or a framework.
Like always I decided to make a game with pygame and choosing a difficult path for myself which gives more pleasure when completed. I only had last five days due to a work load in the previous days.
After thinking a lot I decided to remake the famous ASTERODIS game from scratch. I had some pre-written code that I used for the game.
The Game:
The game was finally made and submitted 19 minutes before the deadline. It was a very tiring weekend but somehow I managed to complete the task. Here's a view of the game:
Conclusion:
After 5 days of voting the result came out and my game stood 34th out of 91 games, which was not a bad result as I completely overlooked the theme resulting in no theme integeration. But I learned a lot from the jam and these five days taught me how to handle the enormity of tasks.
I will request you people(the readers) to leave a feedback so I can make more blogs like this and teach things related to game dev.A link to my all published games on itch.io

Faseeh.
